@smjjames – It looks okay to me in Firefox (versions 2 and 3) and Internet Explorer. Maybe the home page is cached for you somehow? You could try forcing a page refresh… hold down the [shift] key (or the Command key in Mac) and click the Reload button in Firefox. Let me know if it’s still a problem.

Wiki says: “In surviving tales, Sif is the mother of Þrúðr, by Thor, and mother of the seemingly once major god Ullr by a father unrecorded in surviving sources. However, the source lists Thor as his stepfather without further explanation.[3]” and the source is listed as: ” This is accounted for in chapter 31 of Gylfaginning, a book of the Prose Edda.”
